GAS CONNECTION

WARNING

This operation must be performed by a qualied technician.

• The gas supply system must comply with local regulations.

• You can nd specic local regulations for some countries in the paragraph “Reference to Local Regulations”.

If no information concerning your Country is given, please ask details to your Installer.

• The connection of the hob to the gas pipe network or gas cylinder must be made by means of a rigid copper

or steel pipe with ttings complying with local regulations, or by means of a continuous-surface stainless steel

hose complying with local regulations. The maximum length of the hose is 2 linear metres.

• Connect elbow (A)* or (B)* supplied with to the hob inlet main pipe and interpose the washer (C) supplied,

• the gas injector must be changed by After Sales Service or a qualied technician;

• injector not supplied with the appliance must be ordered from After Sales Service;

• adjust the minimum setting of the taps.

NOTE: when liquid petroleum gas is used (G30/G31), the minimum gas setting screw must be tightened as far as it will go.

IMPORTANT: should you experience difculty in turning the burners knobs, please contact the After Sales Service for the replacement of the burner

tap if found to be faulty.

IMPORTANT: when gas cylinder is adopted, the gas cylinder or gas container must be properly settled (vertical orientation).

REPLACING THE INJECTORS (see the injector table in the Instruction)

• Remove grids (A).

• Extract burners (B).

• Using a socket spanner of the appropriate size unscrew the injector (C), unscrew the injector

to be replaced.

• Replace it with the injector suitable for the new type of gas.

• Re-assemble the injector in (D).

• If you have a multiple crown burner use side spanner to replace the injector (E).

Before installing the hob, remember to afx the gas calibration plate supplied with the injectors in

such a way that it covers the existing information relating to gas calibration.

ADJUSTING MINIMUM GAS SETTING OF TAPS

To ensure that the minimum setting is correctly adjusted, remove the knob and proceed as follows:

• tighten screw to reduce the ame height (-);

• loosen screw to increase the ame height (+).

The adjustment must be performed with the tap in minimum gas setting position (small ame) :

• the primary air of the burners does not need to be adjusted;

• at this stage, light up the burners and turn the knobs from max position to minimum position

to check ame stability.

Upon completion of adjustment, reseal using sealing wax or an equivalent material.

REFERENCE TO LOCAL REGULATIONS

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

If the hob will not operate correctly, before calling the After-Sales Service, refer to the Troubleshooting Guide to determine the problem.

1. The burner fails to ignite or the ame is not even

Check that:

• the gas or electrical supplies are not shut off and especially that the gas supply tap is open;

• the gas cylinder (liquid gas) is not empty;

• the burner openings are not clogged;

• the plug end is not dirty;

• all the burner parts have been positioned correctly;

• there are no draughts near the hob.

2. The burner does not stay lit

Check that:

• when lighting the burner, the knob has been pressed for enough time to activate the protection device;

• the burner openings are not clogged near the thermocouple;

• the end of the safety device is not dirty;

• the minimum gas setting is correct (see relevant paragraph).

3. The containers are not stable

Check that:

• the bottom of the container is perfectly at;

• the container is centered on the burner;

• the grids have not been exchanged or positioned incorrectly.

If after the above checks the fault still occurs, get in touch with the nearest After Sales Service.

CLEANING THE HOB SURFACE

WARNING

Disconnect power before servicing.

• All the enamelled and glass parts should be cleaned with warm water and neutral solution.

• Stainless steel surfaces may be stained by calcareous water or aggressive detergents if left in contact for too long. Any food spills (water, sauce, coffee,

etc.) should be wiped away before they dry.

• Clean with warm water and neutral detergent, and then dry with a soft cloth or chamois. Remove baked-on dirt with specic cleaners for stainless steel surfaces.

NOTE: clean stainless steel only with soft cloth or sponge.

• Do not use abrasive or corrosive products, chlorine-based cleaners or pan scourers.

• Do not use steam cleaning appliances.

• Do not use ammable products.

• Do not leave acid or alkaline substances, such as vinegar, mustard, salt, sugar or lemon juice on the hob.

CLEANING THE HOB PARTS

• Clean glass and enamelled parts only with soft cloth or sponge.

• Grids, burner caps and burners can be removed to be cleaned.

• Clean them by hand with warm water and non-abrasive detergent, removing any food residues and checking that none of the burner openings is clogged.

• Rinse and dry.

• Ret burners and burner caps correctly in the respective housings.

• When replacing the grids, make sure that the panstand area is aligned with the burner.

• Models equipped with electrical ignition plugs and safety device require thorough cleaning of the plug end in order to ensure correct operation. Check these

items frequently, and if necessary, clean them with a damp cloth. Any baked-on food should be removed with a toothpick or needle.

NOTE: to avoid damaging the electric ignition device, do not use it when the burners are not in their housing.

STEP 1 STEP 2

When positioning the grids, make sure right grid is placed as rst,

and that left grid engaging recesses are properly overlapping right

grid retention protrusions (see detail in picture).

PRATICAL ADVICE FOR USING THE BURNERS

This hob has burners of different diameters. For better burner performance, please stick to the following rules:

• use pots and pans with bottoms the same width as that of the burners or slightly larger (see table on the right);

• only use at-bottomed pots and pans;

• use the correct amount of water for cooking foods and keep the pot covered;

• make sure pots on the grates do not protrude beyond the edge of the hob;

• in the case of pans with convex bottoms (WOK), use the support grille, which should be positioned only on the

multi-ring burner.

IMPORTANT: improper use of the grids can result in damage to the hob: do not position the grids upside down

or slide them across the hob.

Do not use:

• cast iron griddles, ollar stones, terracotta pots and pans;

• heat diffusers such as metal mesh, or any other types;

• two burners simultaneously for one receptacle (e.g. sh kettle).

Liquids spilled on hot hob area can cause glass damage.

HOW TO USE THE HOB

WARNING

Do not let the burner ame extend beyond the edge of the pan.

IMPORTANT: when the hob is in use, the entire hob area may become hot.

• To ignite one of the burners, turn the relative knob anti-clockwise to the maximum ame setting.

• Press the knob against the control panel to ignite the burner.

• After the burner has ignited, keep the knob pressed for about 5-10 seconds to allow proper device operation.

This burner safety device shuts off the gas supply to the burner if the ame goes out accidentally (because of sudden draught, an interruption in the gas

delivery, boiling over of liquids, etc.).

• The knob must not be pressed for more than 15 sec. If, after that time has elapsed, the burner does not remain lit, wait at least one minute before

trying to light it again.

NOTE: should particular local conditions of the delivered gas make the ignition of burner difcult, it is advisable to repeat the operation with

the knob turned to small ame setting.

The burner might go out when the knob is released. This means that the safety device has not warmed up enough. In this case, repeat the operations

described above.
